Team JASZ's hunting trip (Team JASZ only)

"...don't get cocky."

Right.

Alton leapt to his feet, the map dissolving as he sprinted through it up the hill. "Alright chumps, let's do this." As he cleared the ridge, a dozen Boarbatusks came into view. Diadem's utility pack began to hum as Alton prepped its automatic feed system. "ALTOOOOOOOON" bullet casings began to sprout from the gauntlets, plumes of flame shooting forward "ASTERAAASSSSS."

Alton was at full sprint, peppering the armored Grimm with lead; admittedly ineffective in dealing damage, but definitely an attention-grabber. The pack was spread out through the clearing, so Alton was surrounded by the time he made it to the center, pausing only to look over his shoulder while continuing his dash to the rock wall ahead.

Jet's helmet rose from its compartments and formed around his head as he took his position hiding behind a rather large rock. He waited for Alton to bring the boarbatusks to him, placing an ice canister in between Paladin's blades.




The boarbatusks looked up at the boy as he jumped over the ridge, shouting loudly. They huffed and stamped their feet as he approached, readying for attack. Some strange small thuds hit their armor and just bounced off. The boy... Was trying to hurt them! They rushed towards his at high speeds, grunting and roaring loudly. They chased him closely, snarling and snapping at him, just out of reach. A few stopped running and curled into a wheel, spinning up and rushing him, gaining fast. Their roll kicked up plumes of dirt as they quickly started closing the gap on him.

"Aw, crap." Alton sidestepped, mid-stride, as a ball of armored plates flew past, followed by another and another. "Fast buggers." Now was the time to escape this mess; lines flew out and up as Alton lifted himself from the fray, towards the wall. He was now moving faster than the Grimm, but only barely: only his elevation was stopping them from battering him into a pulp.

"'least I have AURA!" he shouted at the pack below.

"C'mon... Just a bit more Alton..." Jet quietly said as he tightened his grip on Paladin.






The boarbatusks roared and huffed at Alton, leaping up occasionally to bite at him, but just barely out of reach.
